Peter Leko just released a 31-hour Ruy Lopez strategy course on Chessable, and his responses to students in the forum are everything ❤️

Third and final day hiking / running the MIUT Madeira 60K course.

Second day hiking / running the
MIUT Madeira 60K course in preparation for my first ultra next month.

Proud to have gotten a short vocal feature on it.

Looking forward to screaming my lungs out on a few of these songs at…

My take...

EVERY BODY should walk 🚶
